Orkut Mobile Application Goes Live

After releasing the mobile version of orkut, yesterday orkut announced mobile application that offered you the site's core functionality wherever you happen to be. This is the beta launch of the orkut mobile application, a downloadable app for Java-enabled phones (including popular phones like the Nokia N95, Nokia 6300, and Sony Ericsson W580i), that truly makes your orkut experience as mobile as you are.

Top five favorite features of the orkut mobile app:

Upload photos to orkut on-the-go, directly from your phone.

View scraps, friends' updates, and photo albums while you're offline.

Share your orkut albums with all of your friends whether they use orkut or not (via SMS).

Easily call or SMS your orkut friends and address book contacts from within the app.

Get automatic updates when your friends change their contact information or orkut profiles.

Install the orkut mobile app (available in English and Portuguese), by heading to m.google.com/orkut on your mobile phone's browser. While the app is free to download and use, your mobile provider's regular data charges will apply.
